No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 2177

In the most recent case assigned to her, she had to defend a fifteen-year-old boy for his innocence.

The moment Rachel placed the case file on the desk, Vincent immediately furrowed his brows. “You accepted this case?”

“Is there a problem?”

Upon seeing the hardened expression on Vincent's face, Rachel couldn't help but frown.

“This young man acted in self-defense. However, the plaintiff has made it clear that they are determined to get this young man a death sentence no matter the cost.”

The young man's name was William Jabin, a resident of Attlewich. He moved to his current residence with his father and attended a local school. He was currently in ninth grade and had been subjected to three years of school bullying.

He even suffered sexual assault from his peers, and they even recorded videos of the assault.

The reason William committed murder was because he was bullied again. The person he killed was a kid from one of the prominent families in Bayswe.

Moreover, the victim's father only had one son, born to him in his old age.

The victim's father took William away immediately after he committed murder, locking him in the basement as a form of personal revenge.

William's father managed to locate William through an extensive online search and escalating the issue.

In Bayswe, no one was willing to take on William's case, but Rachel did.

It seemed that she was planning to defend him pro bono.

“So what?” Rachel said nonchalantly.

However, he still decided to tell her the seriousness of the issue.

“Rachel, I understand your opinions, but it's really difficult to defend the defendant of this case as not guilty. He didn't just harm one person. How will the public view the justice system if he doesn't take responsibility for his actions? The court won't rule in that way. Moreover, the victim's father won't ever let that happen.”

If the victim's father refused to accept the verdict and appealed, William's case could still be overturned as long as the victim's father had connections and prepared some evidence to counterattack William.

Vincent simply didn't want Rachel to make a wasted effort.

After all, plenty of things were easier said than done, and they were often not as simple as expected.

“I've already taken this case. Regardless of the threats made by the victim's father, I won't compromise with any authority since I've chosen this profession. Vincent, we're from different worlds, and our ideologies can't be any more different. I think it's better for you to leave early. Stop delaying my work,” Rachel stated airily. Her intention to dismiss him was extremely clear.
